We are a small community based organisation supporting hundreds of children and young people with conditions such as Autism, ADHD and associated physical, mental health and learning difficulties, as well as their families.
As an organisation we are quite unique in the fact that we not only provide training for the people supporting the child, but a range of fun yet therapeutic activities for the children and young people afterschool and during the holidays along with days out and special events specifically tailored and adapted to meet the wide range of often very complex needs of the children and young people attending
Christmas is a special time for us and we always make an extra effort to ensure that the families, many of whom would be able to attend many of the regular Christmas events you see advertised, because of the nature of their Childs condition, have the very best time. for the last 7 years we have hosted Christmas parties, elf schools, Pantomimes, film nights, (you name it, and we will make it happen) but the most special thing is our Grotto. Every year Father Christmas makes a special visit where families can come along and spend some time together in our Grotto 1:1 with the big guy himself. It really is magical, the Children love it and all the mums and dads cry. - please head over to our socials where we will share a video of last years magic!
So we have our Christmas fayre this coming Saturday, so we were all set to start getting the place decorated this morning when to our horror when we opened our Christmas cupboard we found that the waste pipe had been leaking and our beautiful Christmas things were covered in dirty sludgy water.
We are appealing to you to help us make Christmas happen, some the things we have lost we have had for years and wont be able to be replaced, but with your help we can do our best to make it as special as ever. Please donate anything you can to help us.
Lots of Love
Jo, Hannah & Lindsey xx
